1. Md Mahfuz Alam, the coordinator of the Liaison Committee of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, characterized the recent popular uprising as a well-organized initiative. He remarked that the political agreement reached in 1990 was disrupted during the events of January 11, leading to a significant erosion of the people's aspirations since that time.

Mahfuz Anam, President of the Editors' Council, stressed the immediate requirement for a transparent and effective government. He also pointed out the importance of articulating a clear vision for a new nation and fostering a connection between the government and its citizens.
